------Wool Felt Fabrics- from National Non-Wovens-------
Wool Felt blend fabrics are manufactured by National Non-Wovens in the USA. I stock both WCF and TOY lines, which are Wool and Rayon Blends. The thickness is 1-2 mm. The wool content ranges from 20-35% ,with the balance of the fiber content being Rayon Care is Dry Clean.

Welcome to Woolhearts. A place for fun and wool felt whimsy. I'm glad you stopped by.

**I offer many different way to purchase the felt***
The bolt widths are 36" Wide. You can purchase from 1/4 of a yard to full yards for the colors that I carry in full bolts. For the other 25 to 35 other colors, I offer them by the sheet sizes of 9" x 12" or 12" x 18". If you need more than two yards of any color, please contact me through the conversation tool before checkout to make sure I have this amount available, as between one and two yards is my re-order point.

I also offer several monochromatic bundles of 9"x 12" or 12"x 18" sheet sizes as a convenient stash builder.

To wash this felt:
Hand Soak for a few minutes in Hot soapy water. Colors will bleed, so handwash each color separately. Agitate gently in soapy water, rinse in cold water. Squeeze out water. Avoid wringing or twisting it. Squeeze out as much as you can be hand, then lay out on towel and roll out any remaining moisture. Let air dry. You can also dry it in a dryer. Steam press if you want to, or use in it's natural washed, bubbly state. You can expect about 10% shrinkage at a minimum, as wool and rayon are both fibers that will shrink when wet.

Of course, if you are making crafts with this felt, you can use it as is.

Wool Content Burn Test:
If you have a piece of felt and are not sure of it's fiber content, do the burn test. Light a corner of the felt with a bic lighter, then blow it out. If there is wool in your felt, it will have a smell similar to burnt hair. If the felt is acrylic, it will melt more than burn and not have an organic smell.

Please contact me if I can be of further assistance with anything. I check in quite a few times per hour.
